Yet. I don't expect him to be, but not being charged yet doesn't mean anything

I don't know whether it has been discussed on here because there are so many pages but I've seen a lot of sprint car races where during cautions drivers will gun the cars for short bursts. Anyone know why--does it have anything to do with conditioning the tires?


So he just happened to time a "short burst" right at that spot on the track? Really?

Not to mention, I'm sure there is other video, so all of that would have to be looked at as well.

He likely won't get charged, but you know EVERY other driver knows what happened. Also, I imagine that he loses a few sponsors over this. They might not pull the plug immediately, but I bet a few don't re-up when the contract runs out.

Yup. Further solidifies my argument that these professionals should leave these Podunk races to the amateurs. There's no winning out of this.

Not to mention he probably won't see criminal charges but will get sued out the arse by the deceased family.

But but but he was in traffic ( one car 30 ft ahead of him) and couldn't see him (going about 35-40 if I had to guess).

Those drivers must be completely blind when at full speed and dust is flying.

Right. Not sure if I buy the dust blinding theory either. From the video it doesn't look nearly as dusty as I would expect one of those races to be.

Nah...I like watching you egg Fred on. You are jumping in front of his TD car so to say and it's only a matter of time before he runs over your posting privileges.


He is the one instigating with name calling. He first said I was dumb and then a cock sucker so I am not allowed to retaliate? I just came here to discuss my opinion. If that is not welcome then I don't understand what we are doing here.

If Jay Mariotti is on the opposite side of my opinion, I feel better.
